The 7650 accounts for routing restrictions, so that it will not direct the driver onto roads that do not permit trucks. These extends to different classes of hazmat transportation as well as different sizes and weights. It will also guide the driver away from low bridges based on the provided truck height. The Lane Assist tool informs drivers which lane they need to be in for their next exit with a visual representation of the upcoming road. It also comes with voice directions that work in both English and Spanish. It will automatically update the route if the driver makes a change, and it will still remember the requirements and restrictions on roads and low bridges. It is easy to set up the unit to account for any combination of truck size, load, length, height, and weight. The WorldNav 7650 has a one year limited warranty on the hardware. Any accessories and the memory card have a 30 day warranty, and the memory card can be backed up on a computer. You can get a great deal on WorldNav 7650 here.

After doing a lot of research I decided on WorldNav because it’s $100 cheaper than comparable model from Rand McNally and it has the same features. I’m very impressed with this unit, especially the 7inch screen (my 5 year old PC Miller had 4.3” display). Also, the WorldNav has a big database of truck-specific points of interest and it clearly marks restricted roads so it’s easy to avoid them.

I use this GPS for my RV. The screen size is great and it’s a solid GPS. My only complaint is it locked up on me a couple times and had to be rebooted.

Ive had multiple WorldNav units. There customer service is awful and gps is pure junk. They should give you a punching bag and box of tissues with any product made by teletype. Ended up giving my broken Worldnav to Rand McNally for 100 off the 730. Never looked back

Purchased a new WorldNav GPS, experienced gliches, it shut down for days at a time now and again and I found it impossible to update. Got no response from their tech support. I wouldn’t buy another WorldNav unless it was like…. 10 bucks. I will stick with Garmin, a more reliable product from a more reliable company that provides support after the purchase. Stay away from WorldNavy away save yourself some headaches.
